Two Signed Singles.

There are two very special signed items going into the auction this year. Both are from the same vendor who was a fan from the early days and both are singles.

First is the debut single for the Beatles on the Parlophone label, Love Me Do. It is a red label version, purchased on the day of release from NEMS. A few days later it was taken down into The Cavern Club where it was fully signed on the B-Side by all four Beatles. (The vendor had participated in a vote to decide what would be the single release and their vote was for PS I Love You.)

Estimate - £6500 - £8000

Similarly this red label Please Please Me single was purchased from NEMS as soon as it was released and again a few days later was dutifully taken along to a Beatle Cavern gig and fully signed by the whole band.

Estimate - £6500-£8000

A few years ago we sold a fully signed copy of the Love Me Do single for around £12400 - the most we've ever seen a signed single sold for!
